In combination with virtual simulation, physical testing enables engineers to verify and validate that the product works in the real world and provides the expected performance while following regulatory and sustainability requirements. Simulation and testing create closed-loop connections between the virtual and physical worlds by leveraging real data from physical tests or field use in the virtual simulation models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Simulation generates vast amounts of data, but how do you effectively harness it for competitive advantage? This is where AI and HPC become indispensable. When you have the most flexible, scalable and efficient HPC solution available, you\u2019re opening the door to breakthrough opportunities that traditional methods could never match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
AI accelerates the discovery of optimal solutions by intelligently exploring vast design spaces, automating routine analyses, and uncovering non-intuitive relationships that human engineers might miss. On top of that, AI can reduce iteration cycles, optimize automation and provide engineers with insights early in the process when they are most useful. HPC enables increasingly complex multiphysics simulations to run in compressed timeframes, enabling fast training of AI algorithms with high-quality information and data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, with the abundance of data and information, it\u2019s crucial to also capture the context and design intent that gives meaning to that data across the product lifecycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Connecting simulation, testing and real-world performance data within a Digital Thread framework provides the necessary context for AI-guided decision-making with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Differentiators like AI-powered engineering, knowledge graph technology, and high-performance computing have the potential to accelerate product development and unlock new opportunities for innovation and growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
